At the Junior Achievement Golden Star Breakfast, recognition and awards were given to volunteers, school districts, sponsors, and board members for an outstanding year of economic success.

The seniors enjoyed breakfast together as they celebrated one last time before graduation. The summa cum laude students were announced as well as Valedictorian, Michael Calhoun, and Salutatorian, Allison Todd.

Each year, two students are selected, one student who originally qualified for the Dual Language Magnet Program in English and one who qualified in Spanish.

Michael Calhoun was named Valedictorian and Allison Todd Salutatorian at the Senior Breakfast at the Convention Center this morning. The two received an additional medal for their honors among the 45 Summa Cum Laude announced at the breakfast.
